Multiple Old Milwaukees into the afternoon, a bowl of Royal Yacht following my first bowl of PA of the day. Very nice afternoon! And I know what I've been doing wrong with my golf swing!! Tomorrow, I shoot my age!

So you are going to shoot 102 Just kidding. Really need to get some Royal Yacht and some PA to try out

I'm all set for a bowl of Anny Kake in my Tsuge Arashi sitter, its fairly large bowl so probably half now and the other half on the drive home

Tell ya what, Chad. When I'm 102, I'll be deLIGHTED to shoot 102! I'm actually grinding to get it in before I turn 70 in June. Ya never know, I've been putting pretty well, actually.

I think I need something stout after dinner. Maybe some coffee, too! Gonna go set some basic KK to the burn.

I have respect for anybody who can shoot under 90. I was just never able to get me swing consistent enough and my main problem was my Driver was terrible but that was 10 years ago, been awhile since I've golfed. Problem for me is I'm not a morning person and with the summers here in Phoenix getting up to 115 you have to start at dawn or roast your butt off and in the winter its expensive and busy. Every now and then I go over to a public course, they have a nice 9 hole par 3 that is fun for me. I even took lessons and still could hit my 3 wood farther than my driver, try and explain that. Its not like I was slicing it or anything just couldn't get the distance.

Even money you play the driver too far back in your stance. Freddy Couples, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino and Raymond Floyd, to name a few real hackers, play the ball OUTSIDE their left foot, WAY forward, with an open stance. It's really the best way to hit a driver, because you want to get the ball slightly on the upswing, at the worst level. It's just a lot easier to hit it out there with a driver. Put it inside the stance and it's hard to stay behind the shot, but forward, you can actually move into it -- and crush it.

Finished up a bowl of Louisiana Flake in Frankenpipe. I'll move on to some Ashton Artisan's Blend in a Myon Royale Bulldog. Nice looking pipe, smokes well, and essentially free in my eyes. It was part of a lot I bought to get a different pipe.

Re: The Afternoon Smoke Break

I need to get out some LF myself. The Irish Oak will be gone in a couple of hours, so maybe tomorrow. Working on the aforementioned IO as I type.
Probably no golf before Wednesday, but it'll give us a chance to work at the range for the first scramble coming up in few weeks.

Re: The Afternoon Smoke Break

Picked up a pouch of SWR at the supermarket the other day (as soon as I walked out I questioned myself as to why I didn't just buy the tub). Decided to go simple today, SWR in a bent MM Legend CC (the first time in about a week I've smoked something other than SG Chocolate Flake).
